Bad/illogical/outdated directory structure is one of the most annoying things I've encountered while using Linux, because it makes the admin job feel unnecessarily messy (things are all over the place), and it feels as if there's a fundamental imbalance in the system that you can't get rid of.

There is really not that many places to look. I agree it could be better but part of the time the issue is with package maintainers. And to some extent, systemd has made things a little more convoluted. Compared to Windows it is far better because at least you don't go having to search thousands of registry keys.

At least for the PATH, you can also automate the looking. When on a new POSIXy system, I usually try "(IFS=: ; ls $PATH)" at the shell to get a listing of all programs available.
